Welcome to the workstation photos thread. In this thread you may post pics of your workstation area.

Please be mindful of our members on dial-up and try to keep the dimensions of the pics and the size of the files to a respectable size for 1024 x 768 viewers. [b]Please refrain from quoting images in your replies.[/b]

I will also ask that you link to images on your own space, as much as possible.

The usual forum rules also apply.

Hey, it's awesome. It's the G25, not the latest model but I have had it a few years. Never had a problem, even works with win8. It's good with games such as F1 2012, rFactor, Dirt and other games. But I am really looking forward to project cars - ][url="http://www.wmdportal.com/projects/cars/"]http://www.wmdportal.../projects/cars/[/url]

Where did you find that wallpaper?

It was on the http://www.nasa.gov/ site I often view the 'Image of the day' and keep an eye on the curiosity updates. The nasa site provides really high resolution images , good for desktop backgrounds.

Ironically asks for the whereabouts of a wallpaper for his desktop... argues constantly that the desktop is dead.

You people with your empty desks with nothing on them but a keyboard, a mouse and a monitor make me laugh. Those aren't [i]work[/i]stations, they're museum pieces for which you don't get to charge for admission.

The only reason I don't have a spec of dust on [i]my[/i] desk is that there's no empty area on its surface for dust to accumulate. It's not [i]messy[/i], it's [i]being used[/i]. :-)

A messy desk is just that a mess, not usable foe real work, a nicely organized desk is usable and efficient
Gotta try and sneak a shot of my workstation here when management isn't looking

Yeah but problem is with more than half the empty desks on here are so empty you can tell they dont use it... So if i see a super clean desk it either means they cleaned it before pic or dont use it..

A messy desk and a desk that is a mess is a huge difference.. I swear if I went to other Electrical Engineer's houses and they had a clean organized desk something is wrong lol

I HATE clutter with a passion, my desk is what you would call super clean, yet it works for many of us

Most of the engineers/masters and above seem to agree to this: "A messy desk is a busy desk, a clean one means no work", I do agree however that are very exceptional people that doesn't like messiness.

Well that is different, im talking about I have my desk with projects such as micro controllers, breadboards, books and work... Dunno about these ketchup bottles and ****..

If you took that as obnoxious, then obviously you live a different world than most.

If you spent more time on reading what I said and look at my pictures I am neat and clean. All I SHARING was that IMO if you have a desk it should used for work and I would expect some paperwork or books showing actively.
I dont live in messes, but I believe to keep some form of sanity we must live in chaos. Just another two of my cents before you go off saying im being obnoxious again

If where you live you have tons of people that have areas like that (I have yet to see any), might be time for you to move bud.

Youre real funny guy, made my laugh for the day.

In the end people are happy with just keyboards and mouse on desks, others prefer to use it as workstations as I.

im into this,. Love having a clean desk, i know where everything is and if i need space to work on something its there. No need to move things and lose stuff. But i have mates who have a messy desk and it works for them. each to there own i guess.

Regarding messy desks (I'm the one who started talking about this 2 or 3 pages back)...

I'm a software developer, so I have a multiple monitors / keyboards / laptops / tablets on my desk. I also always have lots of paper notes around me, references, books, wires, adapters of all sorts, office supplies, etc. I'm not going to waste time putting all of these [I]elsewhere[/I] for the sake of clearing the surface of my desk every evening when I call it quits, only to move everything back on it the next morning. I just don't see the point of that. When I get back to work, everything's still exactly the way I left it, so I can jump right back to where I was.

That being said...unlike some people posting pictures here, you won't find old food containers, empty drink bottles, etc on my desk. These just don't serve any purpose, and keeping them around just makes you a slob.

I haven't made dramatic changes from the structure of my desk since the last time I participated, but here is my latest desk. The biggest adjustment was to do all matching screens. So I have 3xDell U2410. I also switched from my old Logitech MX 5500 KB set to the DAS Pro and SteelSeries Sensi.
